Addicted to Love, Mr. Fu’s Newly Married Wife

Chapter 1561 Coincidence

Nan lowered his eyes slightly, his mind swirling with thoughts like a tangled mess.

This Ye Junhao is so weird. I don’t know him well, but from the moment we met, every move he made seemed so strange. Could it be that he likes me?

She was muttering in her heart, and couldn't help but secretly look up, looking across the dining table at Ye Junhao opposite her.

At this moment, Ye Junhao was sitting quietly, his deep eyes seemed to contain endless secrets, and he was looking at her quietly.

There was an indescribable concentration in his eyes, as if she was the only one left in the world.

Nan Weiwei felt her heartbeat suddenly quicken, and her cheeks unconsciously flushed. She quickly looked away, but her heart became more and more uncomfortable.

Especially Ye Junhao's straight eyes, like an invisible fire, burning her heart with inexplicable tension. She couldn't help but secretly complain in her heart: Why does he keep staring at her? This atmosphere is really too awkward.

In order to break the suffocating silence and ease the somewhat delicate atmosphere, Nan Weiwei took a deep breath and took the initiative to start the conversation.

She sat up slightly, a polite yet slightly curious smile on her face, and asked softly, "Mr. Ye, can I ask how your leg... was injured? Do you mind?"

As soon as she said this, she felt a little regretful, worried that asking this question would touch the other person's sore spot.

When Ye Junhao heard this question, he was slightly stunned, and then a bitter and slightly self-deprecating smile appeared on the corner of his mouth.

He gently turned his wheelchair and looked out the window, as if recalling a distant past.

"I don't mind. What's there to mind? It's not something shameful. You should have heard about the status of the Ye family in Haicheng. A tall tree attracts the wind, so it's inevitable to offend some people. The car accident was probably someone's deliberate revenge."

His voice was low and calm, as if he was telling a story that had nothing to do with him. "Fortunately, he is still alive. Besides, this face must have been plastic surgery. Otherwise, it would be too scary. I'm afraid it would scare Miss Nan."

After saying that, he turned his head and his gaze fell on Nan Weiwei again, with a barely perceptible loneliness in his eyes.

After hearing what he said, Nan Weiwei felt uncomfortable and guilty.

Unexpectedly, he had such a tragic past. She quickly waved her hands and said anxiously, "Mr. Ye, don't say that. Being alive is the greatest luck, and you look very attractive now. As for your leg, medical technology is so advanced now, it will be fine."

As soon as she said this, she felt a little abrupt and her cheeks flushed again.

"Thank you Miss Nan for your encouragement." Ye Junhao smiled.

The curiosity in Nan Weiwei's heart was like a burning flame, and it did not go out because of her hesitation just now.

She bit her lips tightly, as if this could give her some courage and determination.

After much inner struggle and entanglement, she finally decided not to back down, but to muster up all her courage and continue asking questions.

"Then...Mr. Ye, may I ask a question?"

"Well, if you tell me, I will tell you everything I know."

"That is, why did you help me with Chen Donghai's matter?"

"Do you need a reason to help someone? I just happened to hear about his plan. This person is too cunning. I don't like him."

Nan Weiwei... "I'm just curious. After all, you and I are not of the same mind, and it seems that we have no intersection. It seems that there is no practical benefit for you to help me."

"Let's talk business. You're a businessman. I don't think any businessman would do something that would lose money. As the saying goes, there's no such thing as a free lunch."

Nan Weiwei's eyes were full of confusion and inquiry. She stared at Ye Junhao, trying to find the answer from his expression.

Ye Junhao looked at Nan Weiwei quietly, with a complex emotion flashing in his eyes.

He was silent for a moment, as if he was choosing his words, and then he slowly said, "Miss Nan, some things may not be as complicated as you think. Helping you may just be a spur of the moment, or perhaps... it's because I see something special in Miss Nan, a quality that makes me want to get closer."

His voice was gentle and sincere, and there was an indescribable light in his eyes.

Nan Weiwei listened to his words and became even more confused. Something special? What was so special about her?

She was about to ask more questions when the nanny came in with carefully prepared dishes. The delicious dishes filled the table, temporarily interrupting their conversation.

Nan Weiwei looked at the table full of food and thought, perhaps after the meal, all the mysteries would be slowly revealed.

"Miss Nan must feel that there is some purpose for being friends with you?"

Ye Junhao tilted his head slightly, with a hint of teasing in his deep eyes, and raised the corners of his mouth, looking at Nan Weiwei with a smile.

His eyes seemed to be able to see through all of Nan Weiwei's inner thoughts, making her feel a little uncomfortable.

"Isn't it?" Nan Weiwei subconsciously straightened her back, with a hint of vigilance in her eyes.

She thought to herself that although she was not a stunning beauty, she was pretty and charming; her family background was okay... More importantly, she had a fiancé, Nan Yifeng, who was extremely outstanding and powerful in the eyes of outsiders.

Under such circumstances, it was hard for her not to suspect that Ye Junhao had other intentions when he suddenly showed kindness to her.

Thinking of Nan Yifeng, Nan Weiwei's eyes became more determined, as if she had already made a clear decision in her heart.

She took a deep breath, then said righteously, "I'm very grateful that you solved my problem. It really means a lot to me. However, I have to consider my fiancé's feelings. He might mind the presence of other people of the opposite sex around me. After all, we are engaged and have a special relationship with each other. So, I think it's better for us to keep a certain distance..."

Having said that, she deliberately emphasized the word "fiancé" and raised her tone slightly, hoping that Ye Junhao could understand the hidden meaning in her words and retreat.

Ye Junhao was stunned for a moment after hearing her words, and then he couldn't help laughing as if he had heard something funny: "Haha... Miss Nan has a very imaginative mind. You don't think I have any ideas about you, do you?"

His laughter was hearty and clear, echoing in the quiet dining room.

"Isn't it?" Nan frowned slightly, his eyes full of confusion.

She really couldn't understand why Ye Junhao helped her again and again and asked her to meet him if he didn't have other intentions towards her.

Ye Junhao raised the corner of his mouth slightly, looking at Nan Weiwei with a smile, a hint of teasing in his eyes.

He shook his head slightly, as if he felt helpless about Nan Weiwei's thoughts.

"Miss Nan, you...may have misunderstood."

Nan Weiwei... "Misunderstanding..."

Ye Junhao's voice was low and gentle, with an irresistible charm. "Well, I'm interested in you. Do you know when?"

Nan shook his head slightly, "I don't know, tell me."

"Do you remember that night in the bar? The lights in the bar were flashing and the music was deafening. I caught a glimpse of you in the crowd. You were sitting alone on a high stool in the corner, holding a glass tightly in your hand, drinking one drink after another."

"The way you drink shocks me. It's as if you have an endless craving for alcohol, as if you're drowning your sorrows in it, trying to numb your inner self. Every time you drink, your body trembles slightly, but you don't care and continue to drink the wine in one gulp."

"I watched you from afar, and a wave of worry welled up in my heart. Drinking like this recklessly will not only harm your body, but it will also likely plunge you into deeper pain. However, I couldn't step forward to stop you, so I could only watch you silently from the sidelines."

He paused, recalling the scene at that time, and the smile on his lips deepened a little.

"You know what? The way you drank was so generous that it was jaw-dropping!"

Nan Weiwei, wasn't she bothered by her aunt's affairs at that time?

Ye Junhao's tone revealed not only a hint of surprise, but also a bit of confusion and curiosity.

He couldn't help but wonder to himself: "How can a woman have such a good alcohol tolerance?"

This was truly unexpected. Generally speaking, women tend to drink less, but this woman completely overturned his perception.

It's truly amazing how she can handle all kinds of alcohol with ease while remaining sober and graceful.

His eyes were like two blazing flames, fixed directly on Nan Weiwei's porcelain-white face.

His eyes were sharp and focused, as if he wanted to see through her appearance and see into her inner thoughts and feelings.

He stared closely at Nan Weiwei's eyes, not missing any subtle changes in her expression.

He watched carefully to see if her eyebrows rose slightly, if there was a subtle twitch at the corner of her mouth, or if her eyes wandered for a moment.

He seemed to want to find some clues from these subtle expressions and unravel the secret hidden in her heart.

However, Nan Weiwei always maintained a faint smile on her face, making it difficult to guess her true emotions.

"Later, I heard from Lin Yu that you were still conscious when you left the bar. I was really surprised! You know, most people in that situation would have been drunk and unconscious, right?"

"Yet you were able to maintain such a clear mind and even get Lin Yu to call a designated driver for you. This is truly incredible! I can't help but wonder, how on earth did you do it? Do you have an extraordinary alcohol tolerance, or do you have a unique hangover sobering method? Or perhaps you simply didn't drink much at the bar? Countless questions flooded my mind, making me even more curious about your alcohol tolerance and your bar experience."

"I run a bar, and I'm curious about everything related to alcohol."

"What's so curious about this?" Nan Weiwei didn't understand.

"You know, I specially picked that bottle of wine for you. It's quite strong! Most people wouldn't be able to drink a few glasses, even if they just took a sip. I'm afraid they'd be knocked unconscious by the strong alcohol."

"However, what's surprising is that you were able to drink so much without changing your expression and still stay sober. This... is really amazing!"

"That's why I've become extremely interested in your alcohol tolerance. I'm wondering, just how good is your alcohol tolerance? Is it really like the legend that you can drink a thousand cups without getting drunk?"

"So, you're overthinking it. I specifically asked you out this time, but I really don't have any special ideas or intentions."

"I just want to make friends with you! Of course, if you're still a little worried about me, you can always call your fiancé over as well."

"This way, the three of us can enjoy a drink together, and we can also see who's the better of you two, haha! I'm really looking forward to seeing you both, especially seeing how good you are at drinking, so I can open my eyes! Maybe we'll have a chance to cooperate in business in the future, right? The capital is the world of your husband and Mr. Fu..."

"How... do you know?" Nan Weiwei looked alert.

"Is it difficult? The Nan and Fu families are well-known overseas. I would know even if I didn't investigate."

Seeing that there was no sign of lying on his face, the vigilance on Nan Weiwei's face gradually dissipated, but she was still a little skeptical in her heart.

She looked at Ye Junhao's sincere eyes and didn't know what to say for a moment.

After a long while, she slowly spoke: "So that's how it is, then... maybe I misunderstood you. But, forget about asking my fiancé to drink with you, he's usually very busy."

Ye Junhao smiled and nodded: "Okay, then let's wait until Miss Nan is free, and then we can find an opportunity to have a good drink. I want to see if your alcohol tolerance is really as great as the legend says."

Nan Weiwei also smiled and said, "Okay, but don't let me get you drunk by then."

After saying that, both of them laughed, and the atmosphere in the dining room became relaxed and cheerful.

Ye Junhao didn't say anything else, and the dining room fell into silence for a moment, with only the occasional subtle sound of cutlery colliding.

At this time, the nanny brought exquisite dishes to the table one after another. The fragrant aroma instantly spread, stimulating people's taste buds.

Nan Weiwei was already a little hungry, and when she smelled the aroma of the food, her stomach growled involuntarily.

Her face turned slightly red, and she quickly lowered her head, pretending to adjust her skirt to cover up this little embarrassment.

When she raised her head again, her eyes inadvertently swept over the dishes on the table, and a wave of doubts arose in her heart.

The table was filled with all kinds of delicacies, including sweet and sour spareribs that were crispy on the outside and tender on the inside, with a bright red color that made people salivate just by looking at them; there were also fresh and tender steamed sea bass, which was adorned with green chopped green onions and red chili strips, which looked very beautiful; there was also a plate of her favorite scrambled eggs with shrimps, with golden eggs wrapped around the tender pink shrimps, as if telling a delicious story.

In addition, there are several refreshing seasonal vegetables with perfect color matching, which makes people feel happy just by looking at them.

The more Nan Weiwei looked at it, the more she felt something was wrong. How come these dishes were basically all her favorites? She subconsciously bit her lip, her eyes full of thought.

Was this a coincidence, or had Ye Junhao secretly investigated her? If it was a coincidence, it was too coincidental that so many dishes happened to suit her taste; but if Ye Junhao had investigated her, then what was his purpose?

She secretly glanced at Ye Junhao and saw him elegantly picking up the napkin and gently wiping the corner of his mouth with a faint smile on his face, as if he was confident about everything.

His calm demeanor made Nan Weiwei even more convinced that her guess was not groundless.

"Mr. Ye, these dishes..."

Nan hesitated for a moment, but couldn't help asking. She wanted to know the answer, but was afraid of getting an answer that would make her uneasy.

Ye Junhao put down his napkin, raised his head, and met Nan Weiwei's puzzled eyes. The corners of his mouth curled up slightly, revealing a gentle smile: "Why, Miss Nan, don't you like these dishes? I heard that most girls like these flavors, so I took the initiative to order these. If they don't suit Miss Nan's taste, we can change them."

His tone was relaxed and natural, as if he was just ordering casually.

Nan Weiwei listened to his words, half believing and half doubting. She forced a smile and said, "No, I like all these dishes very much. I just think it's a bit of a coincidence."

Ye Junhao smiled softly and said, "It's a coincidence, as long as it suits Miss Nan's taste. Come on, Miss Nan, don't just look at it, eat more."

As he spoke, he picked up the chopsticks, picked up a piece of sweet and sour pork ribs and placed it on the plate in front of Nan Weiwei.

Nan Weiwei looked at the ribs on the plate, feeling mixed emotions.

She didn't know whether she should believe Ye Junhao's words, so she could only politely say "thank you", then slowly picked up the chopsticks, picked up the ribs and put them into her mouth.

The sweet and sour taste spread on her tongue, making her squint her eyes, but the doubts in her heart never dissipated.

During the meal, although Nan Weiwei seemed to be chatting and laughing with Ye Junhao on the surface, she was still thinking about this problem in her heart.

She observed Ye Junhao's every move from time to time, trying to find some clues from his expression and words, but Ye Junhao always behaved very naturally and did not reveal any flaws.

This made Nan Weiwei even more confused. She didn't know what the answer to this mystery was. She could only continue to eat this seemingly ordinary but full of questions lunch with this doubt.
